  • Ascension – 2 –

    Maria stares at Eakran in the strange light that filters in from behind her inside their small ship. The escape vessel was able to seal to airtight because of the translucent shell that is embedded inside of the ship’s morphing metal exterior. The translucent shell is more durable than metal and it is used to…

  • Ascension – 1 –

    Everything happens quickly. Maria is laughing and joking, and then there is an alarm. It is loud and Maria knows that something is wrong. Something is very wrong. The lights of the ship have dimmed and occasionally there are flashing red and blue lights.  Eakran is scared. “It seems we are taking heavy fire,” he…

  • Lost in Space – 3 – The Weapons Expert

    When the crew was stuck in their ship during decontamination, Eakran sat with Maria in what had been the living room of Eakran’s home. As the ship decontaminated, the structure of the interior reverted to its default settings and the foyer that led to the usually spacious living room with walls painted a pleasant light…

  • Lost in Space – 2 – The Navigator

    Before it departed Earth, Eakran was sure to disinfect the inside of his home, or ship, to be sure that no unknown passengers hitched a ride to the IP headquarters. Many of the germs and microscopic organisms of Earth can be deadly to foreign life if they are allowed to grow and spread undetected because…

  • Lost in Space – 1 – Intro

    Space travel can be hard on the body in less sophisticated spacecraft. The better the design, the more capable of shielding its occupants from the deleterious effects that rocketing through space and time can have on organic beings acclimated to a specific spacetime.  The Druinte of the planet Druont are master engineers and their spacecraft…

  • Silas in Hell – Issue 17 – The Father on the Throne

  • The Lightning God – Issue 4 – The Second

    Clay Franklin lived a charmed life. He was the son of Leo Franklin, a boxer who had parlayed his Olympic career into real celebrity. Clay was born in North Carolina, but grew up in a veritable mansion in rural Charleston, South Carolina. The mansion was nice and Clay loved his life wandering through the big,…

  • Silas in Hell – Issue 16 – The Father in Focus 

    Tungsten drifted for a very long time thanks to his ship that recycled his energies as fuel and used its own waste as fuel for Tungsten. Maybe it was the indirect consumption of himself, maybe it was the loneliness, but Tungsten was a changed man by the time his ship came to land on the…

  • Old Man Young (2019 Annual) – Issue 2

    Detective Young is sitting at his desk at the Knoxville, Tennessee Police Department. He has been nursing a cup of coffee since the morning, it is noon now, and he is still sips at it every now and then even though it is cold. He’d been reviewing files of murders with horribly mutilated corpses from…

  • Strange Man in a Strange World – Issue 7 – Bonded

    I don’t think I want to be married. I just want someone else. I want someone to listen to me because they want to hear me. I want someone to miss me when I’m gone and to be excited to hear about everything I’d done since we last saw each other. I live on the…
